This book is a book that I would recommend to anyone 12 and older. I thas a very strong moral to it, which I will not say because thats something you should find out yourself. Anyways, its basically about a girl that gets murdered by a man and then is telling her story from heaven. She talks about what heven is like but she also talks about the greiving of her family on earth. Her family had a lot of problems after her death, so she tells them as they are. This story basically takes place in 1979 in the U.S. I recommend this book strongly. Please take out or buy, but be careful cause once you open it up you will have to use all your willpower to put it down
